The heat reduction performance at sharp leading edges of an X-51A-like aircraft with porous counterflowing jet
We carried out numerical simulations of the flow field of the sharp leading edges of an X-51A-like aircraft using the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes(N-S) equations and the SST
k-ω
turbulence model after verifying the accuracy of the numerical simulation method by comparing it with the experimental data from the published literature. On this basis
we analyzed the heat reduction mechanism and effect of the sharp leading edges with the porous counterflowing jet under different jet exit sizes
jet pitches
and jet expansion angles. The results show that the configuration of the porous counterflowing jet significantly affects the flow field at the leading edge of the vehicle and proper configurations can effectively reduce the heat. Increasing the jet pitch reduces the heat flux of the sharp leading edges; enlarging the jet exit size and jet expansion angle brings similar effects. Moreover
for the same parameter
R
L
which is the ratio of jet pitch and exit size
the smaller the exit size of the counterflowing jet
